Answer: y = 1/2x - 7

<u>Data</u>

Point = (-4, -9)

slope = m = 1/2

<u>Process</u>

To solve this problem, use the formula slope- y-coordinate, substitute the values and simplify.

<u>Equation</u>

 y - y1 = m (x - x1)

       x1 = -4

       y1 = -9

<u>Substitution</u>

y + 9 = 1/2 (x + 4)

<u>Simplification</u>

 y + 9 = 1/2x + 4/2

  y = 1/2x + 2 - 9

<u>Answer</u>

y = 1/2x - 7

Don't use math papa or anything like that, please. The best/Correct answer gets brainiac.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

y = -3/2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We won't be able to figure out Y in number form, since we have a second variable, but we can figure it out in terms of X.

First, we have to subtract 6x from both sides

( -4y = -6x + 24 )

Then we have to divide both sides by -4

( y = -3/2x + 6 )

This is our final answer in terms of x

2. A car takes 7 hours 50 minute to travel 549 9/10 km.
lorasvet [3.4K]
2.)

average velocity=(change in distance)/(change in time), in this case:

v=(549 9/10)/(7 50/60)

v=(5499/10)/(470/60)

v=(5499/10)(60/470)

v=32994/470

v=70.2 km/hr

...

Make two position functions...

c=15t, and r=120-20(t-1)

c=15t, r=140-20t

They meet when c=r so:

15t=140-20t  add 20t to both sides

35t=140  divide both sides by 35

t=4

So they will meet 4 hours after Cindy leaves at 1 pm, thus they meet each other at 5 pm.

check...

c=15(4)=60

r=120-20(4-1)

r=120-20(3)

r=60

A governor of state A earns 53,435 more than the governor of state B. If the total of their salaries is 290,395, find the salari
Pepsi [2]
Let A and B represent the governor's salaries of states A and B, respectively.

A - B = 53,435
A +B = 290,395

Add these two equations to eliminate B.
2A = 343,830
A = 171,915

B = A -53,435 = 118,480

The governor of state A has a salary of 171,915.
The governor of state B has a salary of 118,480.

We have two stacks of styrofoam cups. One stack has 6 cups, and its height is 15 cm. The other stack has 12 cups, and its height
Irina18 [472]

Complete Question

We have two stacks of styrofoam cups. One stack has 6 cups, and its height is 15 cm. The other stack has 12 cups, and its height is 23 cm. How many cups are needed for a stack with a height of 50 cm

Answer:

37.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Height 1 = 15cm

Number of cups = 6

Height 2 = 23 cm

Number of cups = 12

Hence:

H1 - H2/N1 - N2

= 15 - 23/6 - 12

= -8/-6

= 4/3

The number of cups that are needed for a stack with a height of 50 cm is calculated as:

50 cm ÷ 4/3

= 50 × 3/4

= 37.5 cups
